Biography
Asplund grew up in the suburbs of Stockholm, Sweden, with her Polish mother, Swedish father and older sister. Asplund's parents divorced when she was 7 years old.[4]
Asplund began acting at the local theater close to her home at the age of 6, where she played various characters in different musicals until her teenage years. During her childhood the stage was one of few places that truly felt like home, she said in an interview with Swedish Radio.[5]
Later, Asplund studied acting at Södra Latins Gymnasium (Southern Latin secondary school), graduating in 2010. Shortly after, she was cast in David Fincher's adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo opposite Daniel Craig.
